    You probably read it in a book by Arthur C Clarke. I don't quite recall the name I think it's something like "Visions" or "Visions for the future".

    His idea was inspired on the flow of a river. Near the margins the water moves very slowly, almost stopped. He defends something as organic, as you say, I believe the ideia was to have some sorte of magnetic compound like iron particles (I don't remember) sustained by a magnetic field.
